Grades and the Parent Portal
- Due to the sheer number of papers submitted it may take time to get all grades entered.
- Due to school activities, field trips, student illness, art activities and other unforeseen delays, I may postpone the due date on an assignment. In these cases the portal due date may no longer be accurate.
- Missing/late homework can be submitted for a score minus penalty. Remember even a low score is better than a 0. Homework with a green dot is current. Homework with a blue dot is late and can be turned in with half off. Homework with a red dot is to late for submission.
- A poor test score can be improved by rewriting the deficient essay.
- I grade on the total semester not on two averaged 9 weeks grading periods. This means that a poor grade on a progress report or 9 weeks report can frequently be corrected upward. Usually by addressing missing homework or poor test scores.
Only the Final grade is truly Final.
